Badger Women's Black Athletic Fleece Shorts

The Badger Women's Athletic Fleece Shorts in Black are the kind of training short that works for every team, every sport, and every season. Black is a universally functional color in athletic apparel, coordinating with any team color and working equally well as a primary short color or a neutral complement to a brightly colored top. Built from a 9.5 oz. per square yard, 60/40 ring-spun cotton/polyester fleece, these shorts provide a soft, substantial hand feel that athletes notice and appreciate over lighter-weight alternatives.

The ring-spun cotton/polyester blend is specifically constructed to provide a smooth, consistent surface that holds color well and resists pilling through repeated use. The Black colorway benefits from this process with a deep, uniform tone that maintains its appearance through heavy institutional laundering without significant color shift or fading.

For teams cycling uniforms through weekly wash routines, this consistency is a meaningful practical benefit. A 2-inch covered elastic waistband with adjustable drawcord provides secure, fit across a full range of athletic movement. The 3-inch inseam offers a clean, practical athletic-length profile suitable for court sports, track, gym training, and general fitness use.

Double-needle hemming at the leg openings provides structural reinforcement, while single-layer construction keeps the garment breathable during more intense training sessions. An embroidered Badger B logo on the left hip adds a professional finishing detail. Produced in a Fair Labor Association accredited facility, these shorts meet Badger's Socially Conscious Manufacturing standards.

Embroidery and ColorPrint decoration options make the Black style one of the most adaptable short styles in the Badger lineup for team and corporate branding applications. For programs that want a clean, professional short that never looks out of place, Black is the natural choice.
